Thailand’s society and its Buddhist clergy are reeling from a sex scandal in which a woman seduced monks and proceeded to extract money from them via blackmail.
Sky News reported:
“At least nine abbots and senior monks have been disrobed and cast out of the monkhood, the Royal Thai Police Central Investigation Bureau said.
Wilawan Emsawat, in her mid-30s, is accused of enticing senior monks into having sex with her and then pressuring them into making large payments to cover it up.”
Thai monks from the Theravada sect are celibate and can’t even touch a woman.
“Several monks transferred large amounts of money after Wilawan initiated romantic relationships with them, police said -her bank accounts received around 385 million baht (£8.8m) in the past three years, with most of that spent on gambling websites.”
Wilawan was arrested on charges of extortion, money laundering and receiving stolen goods. Upon searching the woman’s phone, Thai police found tens of thousands of photos and videos of sexual activity.
Numerous chat logs also showed her intimate interactions with several monks.
“An investigation was launched last month after an abbot of a famous temple in Bangkok abruptly left the monkhood. He had allegedly been blackmailed by Wilawan over their romantic relationship, investigators found.
She told the monk she was pregnant and asked him to pay her 7.2 million baht (£165,000), Jaroonkiat Pankaew, a Central Investigation Bureau deputy commissioner, said at a news conference in Bangkok on Tuesday.”
